Okay, so I’m arranging for a freight carrier to come in and pick up some compressors we are shipping to China. I sent the weights and dimensions to the woman making the arrangements: 3 skids, weighing 11,000 pounds, 12 x 4 x 4.
I get an e-mail from this woman, and she tells me that I didn’t specify whether or not the dimensions were in inches or in feet.
Ummm….. okay, it’s 11 THOUSAND pounds. I mean, seriously? What on earth would fit into a 12 inch by 4 inch box and weigh 11 THOUSAND pounds?
People amuse me.
But I politely e-mailed her back and said “It’s in feet.”
Now there’s a sentence you don’t find yourself typing very often…..
hahahahahahaha
I picked up the phone to call Emily and tell her. She always got a kick out of my stupid work stories.
*sigh*
